Honda Shadow Spirit 1100 (VT1100C) reviews

This black out bike is awesome.I ride this almost 4 500 in 2 years...I keep with everyone in the road ....with a girl in the back is to weak in power...is just a 750... But style is there...many people ask me what a nice bike.. Nothing to.complain..I just want to make sure after 3 years is time for me to upgrade to a bigger motorcycle Show less

I love this bike. I get everything out of it I need and want. It's beautiful! Show less

Now that I am a little more mature, I wanted a more laid-back bike. This one fits the bill - not too heavy, reliable, good looking and not scary powerful. I have not done any modifications except for swapping the rear seat with a Hondaline rack. To change back takes about 20 minutes. I get good gas mileage and enjoy it a lot. The seat could be a little more comfortable. I just shift my position around a bit and it is tolerable. I plan to keep it for a while and put a lot of miles on it! Show less

This was my fifth bike - I bought this bike used with only 5,000 miles. I have had no major repairs and I've taken road trips yearly. This bike is great in city commuting as well as at home on the open road. I love the balance and the power-to-weight combination. So now with 37,000 miles, I'm looking to finally trade up to a "used 2008 VTX1800" and my son will enjoy my old and still very clean VT1100. Show less

I have had no issues with my Phantom. I put over 15K in 1-1/2 years. I needed a back tire - that has been it, great Honda quality and good gas mileage. Show less

I bought mine new after not riding for several years. I thought it would be a great bike until I wanted to move up in size. I was so wrong!! This beautiful ride is gorgeous, comfortable and super reliable! Who could ask for more!! Maintenance is cheap - mileage and performance are outstanding!! I expect this bike will take me to 100k+. Last bike I'll ever need! Thank you Honda, I'm going to enjoy every mile and save money all the while!! Show less

I recently bought my 2005 Shadow Aero used with only 4,000 miles on it - it's practically like new. I love the bike and it didn't take long to get used to it. It has gobs of low to mid-range torque and I love the sound of the V-twin motor. It also has lots of chrome and the dark candy red color make it a real head-turner. Honda has done it again with another great motorcycle - I know why I keep coming back for their products. No one will ever beat them for bulletproof reliability and quality. I own two of their ATV's and this is my second motorcycle. I'll never own another brand -period! Show less

I've owned my 2009 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 for two years and love it. It's a very comfortable ride, has decent power and has been very reliable. I've added a few "extras" to make it even better. I would definitely it purchase again if I had to do it all over. Show less

I'm a 53-year-old woman who just learned to ride. I was nervous about which bike to start with. I am so thankful that I chose the 2011 Honda Shadow Aero. It is wonderful. Show less

I last posted in 2011 and have had the bike for two years now. I now have almost 42k on the ole Honda Shadow Spirit 750DC. It has been a good, reliable bike. Pros to this bike are many. Cons are chain drive (buy a good chain and that will help) and tube tires. Mpg. averages around 50. Show less
